Book Reviews of A Woman\'s Impression of the PhilippinesBook Review: This Fee Is Worthwhile Summary: 5 StarsOne of the adventurous young American teachers who journeyed to the Philippines in the dawning years of the Twentieth Century, Fee captures for us the unique social and political climate of a people struggling to build a nation. Although the story to be told is about a people's strong desire for education and the sacrifices they made to allow their children attend the schools established the United States, the author spends a lot of time on her personal story. The writing is excellent and the content is well organized.
Summary of A Woman\'s Impression of the PhilippinesOn a hot July day the army transport Buford lay at the Folsom Dock, San Francisco, the Stars and Stripes drooping from her stern, her Blue Peter and a cloud of smoke announcing a speedy departure, and a larger United States flag at her fore-mast signifying that she was bound for an American port.
